    Hi

    Looking for a bit of advice. Need to replace my chain but also looking at changing my Cranksets and possibly the Cassette.
    My current shifters are Shimano Tiagra - 27 speed STI.
    I have a 9 ring - 12-25 Shimano Cassette.
    My Cranks are FSA Vero (Triple) 30-39-50

    I'm looking at possibly getting a Tiagra Crankset from CRC, however i see that you can purchase Ultegra, Dura Ace, 105's also, so i'm wondering if i was to purchase for instance an Ultegra 9 ring Cassette and an Ultegra Crankset, would they work with my Tiagra shifters?

    SOrry for the confusion... hope you can understand what i'm actually asking - i've confused myself along the way :o

    As long as you stick with Shimano, and keep the same number of cogs at the back, then yes, it should all work fine.
